Steenbergs Organic Fairtrade Black Chai Tea is our simplified version of the Indian spicy, chai teas and is based on the quick & easy recipe we love to make for ourselves on a cold, blustery day, especially if we’ve got soaked on a walk. Steenbergs Organic Black Chai Tea is so warming and the organic spices seem to lift the strong organic black tea that we use as a base.
At Steenbergs Organic, we hand blend the organic spices to Axel Steenberg’s own unique recipe in Steenbergs Tea Factory in Ripon in North Yorkshire. Steenbergs uses sweeter organic spices to flavour this organic chai tea blend – organic cloves , organic cinnamon and organic cardamom . These organic spices are cut to a smaller size – called tea bag cut – and hand blended in small batches with a GBOP organic tea that’s been high grown on the POABS Tea Estates in Southern India. POABS is a dreamy place high in the hills (really mountains to us English), where the water comes fresh from the mountain peak into the tea estate. The other side of the hill is a nature reserve, so it’s a really, truly pure place – full of spirit.
Brewing tip: Boil 500ml water and 500ml milk together with some sugar and 4tsp organic black chai tea for about 4 – 5 minutes, then relax and enjoy. For more details on making organic chai tea, please go to recipe for organic chai tea

Tea is a huge love for both of them and they have been sourcing and blending teas since 2005, originally starting as several of their spice growers were on mixed farms with tea. Everything is hand-blended to unique recipes and packed up in rural North Yorkshire, in the north of England, in a purpose built eco-factory. Steenbergs specialize in organic and Fairtrade products wherever possible and have a range of over 400 products including herbs, spices, hot chocolates & home baking ingredients.
Backlog: I made apple pear sauce this evening for dinner, and I steeped some of this to use as the liquid to cook down the fruit… And I steeped enough to enjoy a chai latte as well. YUM! It was delicious as a chai … and it made a delicious fruit sauce to go with pork chops.
